The Radio Configuration dialog box is displayed - the image of the dialog box is
different depending on which network type (page 26) the radio is incorporated
into.
Continue to configure the radios depending on their network type:
Note: The network types available depend on the type of radio you select. Not all network types
are supported on all radios. Refer to the user manual for your radio to determine what network
types are available.
1.6.4 Set Up the Master Radio
RadioLinx IFH radios are designed to act as a "wire replacement" to connect a
local device (for example, a PLC) with one or more remote devices (for example,
another PLC, an HMI, or a field device such as a valve, meter, bar code scanner,
or other measurement or control device).
Every radio network requires one Master radio, and one or more Remote radios.
You must configure the Master radio before configuring the remote radios, as the
remote radio configurations rely on the settings you choose for the Master radio.
When you create a new network, ControlScape FH automatically populates the
network with a pair of radios, as shown in the following illustration.
